Get up early, meet your driver, and head off to Cambodia's less-traveled South. Gaze out the window as you leave the city behind and relax during the five hour drive. When you arrive at the village of Andong Tuek, you will be met by a station guide and travel by boat to Chi Phat, a journey of around two hours. When you arrive in Chi Phat, register with the CBET office and enjoy a simple lunch. Your guide will talk you through what to expect over the next few days and help with your check-in. Once you've checked-in, walk about 2 km. from the village to the nearby Chhay Chrey rapids and observe the  beautiful and peaceful rapids, or even jump in for a swim! You'll be picked up by motorbike and head up to Bald Mountain, riding through villages and farms along the way, waving hello to people who are working their farms. When you arrive at Bald Mountain, enjoy the spectacular scenery and beautiful sunset. Then head back down the mountain by motorbike and return to Chi Phat where you settle in for dinner.
